Geese House Site Conveyance Act
Sponsored By: Senator Murkowski, Lisa [R-AK]
In Committee
Summary
Conveys about 21,578 acres of federal land in Denali National Park and Preserve to Doyon, Limited. This bill would authorize the Secretary of the Interior to transfer all right, title, and interest in a specifically described parcel in Township 11 South, Range 20 West, Fairbanks Meridian, Alaska, to Doyon, Limited, subject to valid existing rights. The transfer would reserve public easements required under section 17(b) of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. Doyon could not sell the land to anyone but the United States, allow mining, or permit development that would derogate the cultural value of the Geese House. The Secretary would adjust the park boundary to exclude the conveyed land and may correct minor survey or clerical errors with Doyon’s written approval.

Doyon would receive Denali land
If enacted, the bill would direct the Interior Secretary to convey about 21,578 acres in the Denali preserve to Doyon, Limited. The transfer would be completed as soon as practicable and no later than one year after enactment. The conveyance would use specific survey sections and BLM serial numbers and would exclude two small lots and two lakes. The Secretary would reserve public easements, and the transfer would not be subject to 43 C.F.R. part 2650 or past withdrawals. Doyon would not be allowed to sell the land except back to the United States, allow mining, or permit development that harms the Geese House's cultural value. The Secretary would adjust the Denali park boundary to remove the conveyed land and, where practicable, match the proposed map dated April 14, 2026.
